March 2012 Beauty Army Kit!

Pardon me if I gush during this review. I LOVE Beauty Army. They offer the only beauty subscription service where you can choose your own samples. While I love a good surprise, I like knowing that all 6 samples I receive are things that I really want to try! They are a fairly new company, and I have been a subscriber since the very beginning.. I was one of the first 300 to sign up. They even sent me a special email with a discount code for being one of the "Elite Beauty Army 300". Now, when I think of "Elite 300", my thoughts immediately turn to a shirtless Gerard Butler. I really can't complain.

I have heard some complaints from people that Beauty Army offers too many skincare samples, and not enough makeup. Well, this is my take on it: I completely credit BA for getting me back into skin care over the last few months. I love Makeup as much as anyone, trust me, but I have learned that makeup looks best when you are taking great care of your skin. You have to start from the bottom up, you know? Beauty Army has introduced me to some amazing brands like Shea Terra Organics, CellCeuticals, and Indie Lee. I've been able to experiment with different skin care products and I'm on the road to figuring out what is right for me. Personally, as far as Skin Care samples go.. I say bring 'em on! Plus, I've gotten at least 1 makeup sample in every kit so far. The subscription is worth it for the Bling Tone eyeshadow alone.. It is a full size "sample" and retails for 20 dollars! Beauty Army has also promised that more makeup is on the way.
I have to mention one more thing.. Products aside, Beauty Army has absolutely the most AMAZING customer service I have ever experienced. I'm not exaggerating. Everyone I have dealt with is incredibly lovely and helpful. Nancy-Lee, their social media editor, maintains a ubiquitous presence on Facebook and Twitter and is always ready to answer questions.. She is a DOLL!
See, I told you I would gush. If you haven't subscribed to Beauty Army yet, you are missing out. 12 dollars a month for amazing products that you choose, and amazing customer service.
I'm including my referral link below if you'd like to give them a try (they also just introduced a great rewards program)
Thank you so much for reading!
All the best,
Jessica

Hiiii!!! New follower from http://empirestatebeautyqueen.blogspot.com/ came across your blog through the BeautyArmy FB page. I just selected my samples for this month today and I am so excited. Glad you loved your box this month ;) xo-Chelise

I love Beauty Army! We are hoping to be a part of the Beauty Army family this fall with a line of natural & high performance skincare, and MAKEUP!! Our project: http://crowdbackers.com/project/100/Orange-County/Stephanie-Devine/Skincare-Startup

I love the idea these boxes you can get, especially this one a you can choose what you receive. However, this one isn't availabl;e to me as I live in the UK, and I can't really afford them right now anyway. Looking forward to your reviews of these products! :)
